Andrew Reynolds - nollie noseslide Cyclops Rail

The sequence of Andrew Reynolds's nollie noseslide on the Cyclops Rail in Atlanta, Georgia. Sequence shot by Brian Gaberman. This was published in the front of the October 2010 issue of Skateboarder, which also had a Stay Gold feature and a full Spanky interview. It's crazy to see how long Reynolds is in the air between the nollie and the noseslide. You can see the clip here or here

Unbroken: The John Cardiel interview

This two-page interview from the April 2005 issue of Skateboarder came out roughly a year after John's injury that left him temporarily paralyzed. He explains the aftermath of the accident and his unlikely road to recovery. His story is eternally inspirational! Words by Alex Klein and photos by Gabe Morford. Here's a direct link to the February 2005 Antihero ad announcing his recovery - forever the best Antihero ad.

Optical Delusions

This is an interesting photo feature by Shad Lambert - for each photo, he tells a story related to the session when the photo was taken, or a brief story about the skater in the photograph. It includes a back story to Ragdoll's wallride in Slaughterhouse, although the photo in this doesn't appear to be the same as the make on video.

Zered Bassett and Ben Colen visited Dr. Z's hometown of Cape Cod, Massachusetts to get photos for his feature interview in the March 2005 issue of Skateboarder, which was published shortly after he had turned pro for the revamped Zoo York team. He talks about growing up playing hockey, dealing with the harsh winters and skating in the city - he even got tricks at spots he'd only dreamed of skating when he was younger. Great interview concept of an even greater skater. Words by Brian Peech.

Jon Allie - Fallen ad

Before becoming a part of the C1rca squad, Jon Allie had a brief stint on Fallen, appearing in the third-ever ad for the company, posted below. I scanned it from the February 2004 issue of Skateboarder. By the December 2004 issue, he was announced in the Squawk Box section as the newest pro on C1rca. No photo credit given for this Fallen ad, but possibly Shigeo? The tailslide clip appeared at the end of Jon's New Blood part.
